## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-14 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's how I'd actually rank them, split by what "workflow automation" means in practice for a distributed team.

> ## Connecting your apps together (the core "automation" layer)
> 
> **1. Zapier** - The default recommendation, and the one I'd start with unless you have a specific reason not to. It has the broadest integration catalog (~8,000-9,000 apps), so whatever odd SaaS tool one team member insists on will probably be supported. Its weakness is price: it bills per *task* (every individual action), which gets expensive fast. Free tier is ~100 tasks/month, Professional around $20/month, Team plans around $69/user/month. ([comparison](https://automationatlas.io/guides/zapier-vs-make-vs-n8n-comparison/))
> 
> **2. Make (formerly Integromat)** - What I'd pick if your workflows are more than two steps or you run real volume. Visual branching, loops, and proper data transformation, billed per *operation* at roughly 10x more value per dollar than Zapier. Free tier is 1,000 ops/month, Core around $9/month. One independent test priced the same 100,000-action month at $599 on Zapier vs. $59 on Make. Steeper learning curve - it looks like a flowchart, not a sentence. ([pricing comparison](https://
